When I returned to Zhenshan, the whole town was immersed in laughter, the bluestone streets were full of people holding all kinds of water containers, they blessed each other, sent flowers and sachets to each other, and children carried all kinds of sweets and pastries in their pockets, giggling and shuttling through the crowd, shouting.

Although Gu Tongye and Mu Xiu tried their best to avoid these crazy people, they inevitably got drenched again after returning home.

In such a festive festival, the two of them seemed out of place.

The Buddha Bathing Festival was held lively for three days, and during these three days, Gu Tongye and Mu Xiu closed the gate of the courtyard and never took a step.

Mu Xiu practiced his sword more diligently, and competed with the maple tree in the yard day and night, and when the sword went down, he refused to give up without piercing a large number of fallen maple leaves at the same time. But Gu Tongye became more and more lazy and sleepy, stayed in the room every day after eating, and came out to cook again when the hour came, and so on.

On the fourth day, there was little commotion in the streets, and there were not many people throwing water on people with utensils, so the government sent some messengers and appointed some people to start sweeping the streets, and some shops were open for business.

The weather is clear, cloudless, and the blue sky is clean, as if it has also been baptized by the holy water of the Buddha Bathing Festival, which makes people feel comfortable.

Stretching his waist and rubbing his almost stiff face, Gu Tongye changed his clothes, then took the drawings and plans in his hand into his arms, and opened the door with a "squeak".

In the courtyard, Mu Xiu was still practicing swords day and night, and the poor maple tree only had a few leaves left and was still swaying on the branches, a gust of wind blew, and finally it was unwillingly blown down, and before it landed, it was cut off by a sword light, and there was no corpse......

"You're going out?" Mu Xiu put away his long sword, wiped the sweat on his forehead, glanced at Gu Tongye's clothes, and stepped forward to ask.

Gu Tongye nodded, took out a handkerchief from his arms and threw it to Mu Xiu, "Well, do you want to go out together?" You've also been at home for days. ”

Mu Xiu took the handkerchief, picked it up and wiped it off his face, wiped the sweat off his face, stuffed the handkerchief into Gu Tongye's hand, and nodded, "Of course!" ”

Gu Tongye looked at the handkerchief in his hand, the corners of his mouth twitched, this guy is really getting more and more unkind!

Gu Tongye didn't hide the matter of buying the store from Mu Xiu, she didn't have much concept of the silver two in this time and space, let alone opening a restaurant, so from the time the store was bought to the current decoration, many things were handled by Mu Xiu, and she was only responsible for providing the building, not the operation.

The location of the shop is on Yong'an Street, not far from the county government, the faΓ§ade is very large, but it is enough to accommodate more than a dozen tables, and it is a two-story building, the most important thing is that the place is safe, and there is a large flow of people, if it weren't for the fact that the owner of the shop was in a hurry to use the money, he would not let Gu Tongye pick up this big bargain.

Looking up at the plaque that didn't mention a word, Gu Tongye secretly wondered who would mention the name of the store.

At this time, a woman dressed in gray coarse cloth walked out, and saw the two of them hurriedly saluting and shouting, "Boss, Mu Gongzi, you are here!" ”

"Well, what's going on?" Gu Tongye came back to his senses when he heard this, looked at the other party and asked.

This woman's name is Li Qiaofeng, her personality is shrewd and refreshing, although she is a little clever but she is still upright, she has read poetry and books for several years, but she has not been able to get a reputation back after taking the exam a few times, so she has no choice but to abandon the official business and seek a way to survive.

She was the shopkeeper of this shop before, but later Gu Tongye saw that she was very good at business, so he intended to cultivate her, so he kept her again and let her continue to be the shopkeeper.

"Back to the owner, the shop has been renovated according to your instructions, do you want to see if there are any other things that need to be changed?" Li Qiaofeng replied respectfully, entered the house, and the people inside hurriedly poured tea and melons and fruits with great eyes.

Looking around, the whitewashed walls are hung with a variety of delicate decorations made of hay or trees and rattan, and some fresh-smelling potted plants are placed around the room, and the closest place to the door is a counter, and then go inside are rows of neatly arranged tables, chairs and benches, which are not very exquisite, but they are practical and convenient.

"The first floor is decorated according to the meaning of the owner, and it will be used for those ordinary people to eat and drink, and the second floor is decorated with exquisite and distinctive features, exclusively for those who have money. Li Qiaofeng asked, his face full of excitement.

Gu Tongye nodded, of course she had to go up and take a look, it was where she made a lot of money!

On the second floor, I was greeted by the tall potted plants of the fortune trees on the left and right, and the fresh mint fragrance made people feel a lot clearer in an instant, "Hey, how can there be mint fragrance?" Gu Tongye asked.

Li Qiaofeng was a little proud when he heard this, "The little one saw that this fortune tree meant that it was good, but he always felt that something was missing, so he planted some mint under the tree, as long as the guests went upstairs, they would feel energetic, and they could also drive away some of the wine and meat downstairs when the time came." ”

Gu Tongye nodded and patted Li Qiaofeng's shoulder appreciatively, "Well done, creative!" ”

Li Qiaofeng was praised and suddenly smiled even more cheerfully.
